Film actor Jamie Foxx joined Trayvon Martin's parents for the event.

Trayvon Martin's parents Saturday hosted a peace walk in Miami in honor of the slain 17-year-old two weeks shy of the one-year anniversary of his shooting death.

Official attendance numbers were not available but photos of the community event show throngs of people marching behind the Martin family and their attorneys, wearing T-shirts bearing the Miami Garden teen's now-iconic image.

Academy Award-winning actor Jamie Foxx joined the Martin family as one of the speakers at the event at Ives Estate Park hosted by the foundation created by teen's family.

The Justice for Trayvon Martin Foundation also plans to hold a remembrance dinner at the DoubleTree Miami Airport Hotel's convention center on Sunday.

Saturday's event was aimed at motivating youth to resolve conflicts without using guns.

Trayvon was fatally shot Feb. 26 by George Zimmerman in a Sanford townhouse community.

Prosecutors say Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree murder, profiled and killed the teen. Zimmerman says he fired in self defense.

The case, which sparked protests and rallies last year, is set for trial in June.

Foxx appeared at the community event wearing a tribute shirt similar to the one that he wore on the red carpet of the 2012 BET awards.

He has been a supporter of Martin's family, expounding his views on social media and in news interviews about the case.
